Eternal Book Review


Eternal by Cynthia Leitich Smith. Eternal has two POVs: Zachary: the guardian angel & Miranda: the vampire. Zachary is a GA (guardian angel) for Miranda. One night, after Miranda bombed her audition for a play, Lucy and Miranda go to the mall to rent a couple of horror flick movies. Both girls, encounter a guy whom Lucy takes interest in. He invites them to the cemetery behind their high school. Zachary's forbidden intervention saves Miranda's life and prevents her from ascending into heaven. Instead, Miranda is adopted by a vampire, Dracul aka the "reigning exalted master of the eternals" & at that point, her soul is forfeit. As punishment from the arch angel Michael, Zachary is taken away his powers and ends up in human form.

Fast forward a year. Miranda is a vicious "eternal" (the vampires prefer "eternal") fiend, the daughter of the vampire "king", and Zachary (still in human form) is attempts to save her soul and earn back his wings. In detail, Zachary is given a guardian angel named Josh whose Zachary's best friend. Zach is tasked with an "assination of sorts" and heads to Chicago in search of the vampire he must stake. Only, Zachary doesn't realize he is supposed to stake Miranda until he interviews for a job as Miranda's personal assitant.

Truthfully, I'm not a fan of this book. You would expect me to be a fan of this book since I LOVE vampires, but this book had no plot line. Or it seemed like it didn't have a plot line. That's just my opinion & as we say at Uncover "we are not afraid to voice opinions". LOL :) If you would like to find out for yourself, be free to buy the book.

Book cover!!! Although, I wasn't a fan of the book, I adored the book cover. The book cover was mainly the reason why I checked ou the book. The wings looked enchanting and heavenly. Props to the person who made the book cover. What do you think? :)
